Solid wax, the kind that travels without leaking
A balm in a pot tips over, stains a lining, and gets stopped at cabin baggage past a certain volume. Solid wax does not run, weighs nothing and slips into a bag pocket. That is the difference between a workshop product and one you take with you.
Three sizes, one genuinely for the road
The travel size. It fits the front pocket of a bag and covers several touch-ups on a trip.
Everyday use, for one piece treated three or four times a year.
For several pieces at home: bag, belt, shoes.
What it does to the leather
Mink oil gives back the fat the leather loses as it dries, and the wax leaves a film on the surface that pushes water away. The leather recovers its depth of colour and its suppleness. This is not polish: polish colours the surface, a conditioning wax goes in.
Three minutes, no more
Dust it off, take a fingernail’s worth, spread a thin layer, let it sink in for ten minutes, buff with a dry cloth. The shine comes from buffing, never from the amount applied: an excess leaves a greasy film that catches dust.
What not to expect from it
It feeds and protects, it does not repair. A deep scuff or a loss of colour calls for dye, not wax. And do not use it on suede or nubuck: any grease flattens the nap.
